Proof that manufacturers watch the aftermarket...

It's definitely a yowza...I'll admit that. There's a very expensive and complicated "bladder" system that's used to make this wing so that it can have it's final outer shape, but still be hollow and extremely lightweight. Even though the overall shape and design is relatively simple in appearance, it's actually the most complex carbon part that we make. That production cost and time, unfortunately, are reflected in the price. Even still...this wing is our #1 selling aero part. There's probably at least 100 of them out there on the streets...

I think for proof that porsche watches the aftermarket, and in the case of the GT2RS i think porsche looked at the Manthey M600 and how they improved on the gt2. The M600 had the front fender extension, extended lip, extended rear spoiler, better intercoolers, and runs higher boost than normal GT2, lwfw and lighter rims and car overall. Which is the same to what porsche did for the gt2rs, the M600 differs that it runs a cup lsd. Dont get me wrong i really appreciate your work but in whats shown above regarding porsche watched the aftermarket to improve thier cars i.e. the GT2RS, IMO i think they looked at Manthey at the M600.

You would be surprised how strong the Werks One splitter actually is. I have hit multiple parking stops w/o any real damage other than minor scratches. However, one fine day I did competely destroy one but it took a hard hit.

I think it looks terrific and adds significant practicality...the 911 is in such desperate need for increased down force in the front end especially at highway speeds.
great job!
